SHEET-PAN SHRIMP GRATIN



Sheet-Pan Shrimp Gratin image

The best part of a gratin is the crispy crust, and, here in this shallow sheet-pan version, there's more of it. Flaky panko bread crumbs - with a sprinkling of mozzarella and Gruyère - form a crisp, almost chiplike topping that tastes not unlike the edges of garlicky, cheesy Texas toast. In fact, the topping comes off in large, snackable pieces. As this bakes (for just 10 minutes!), the spice blend perfumes the kitchen, thanks to herbes de Provence. The shiitakes add earthy heft and incredible umami, but for a more delicately flavored gratin, you can leave them out. Serve this with a big green salad or eat it straight out of the pan.

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/2 pound peeled, deveined shrimp, tails removed, shrimp cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 medium zucchini or yellow squash, thinly sliced crosswise into coins
3 1/2 ounces fresh shiitake mushrooms, tough stems removed, caps thinly sliced
1 large shallot, thinly sliced
2 large garlic cloves, finely grated
1 teaspoon sweet paprika
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
3/4 teaspoon herbes de Provence
Kosher salt (Diamond Crystal) and black pepper
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup panko bread crumbs
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup shredded low-moisture mozzarella
1/4 cup finely grated Gruyère
1 lemon, cut into wedges

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 425 degrees.
  • In a large bowl, toss together the shrimp, zucchini, mushrooms, shallot, garlic, paprika, red-pepper flakes, ½ teaspoon herbes de Provence, ¾ teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon black pepper and 1 tablespoon oil until well combined. Transfer to a 9-by-13-inch sheet pan or shallow baking dish in a single layer.
  • In the now-empty bowl, toss the panko with a pinch of salt, the remaining 2 tablespoons oil and ¼ teaspoon herbes de Provence to combine. Evenly pour the cream over the shrimp mixture in the pan, covering all the nooks and crannies. Sprinkle the panko mixture over the shrimp, then top first with the mozzarella, followed by the Gruyère.
  • Bake until the cream is bubbling and the panko and cheese are light golden brown all over, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving with the fresh lemon wedges, which should be squeezed over the gratin just before serving.

EASY CURRIED SHRIMP



Easy Curried Shrimp image

This is my mom's recipe - it's very quick to make. I used to make this in college every Friday during Lent. You can make the curry start to finish in the time it takes the rice to cook. The amount of curry and ginger is the starting amount; I use up to twice that much, but adjust it to taste.

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 25m

Yield 4-6 ramekins, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

3/4 lb cooked medium shrimp
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons onions, chopped
1/4 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon dry mustard
1 dash pepper
1 1/2 cups milk
2 dashes hot sauce
1 cup grated cheddar cheese
1 tablespoon butter
1/4 cup dry breadcrumbs

Steps:

  • Remove shells and tails from shrimp.
  • Cook onion in butter until tender; stir in flour and seasonings.
  • Add milk gradually and cook until thick, stirring constantly.
  • Add 3/4 cup cheese and heat until melted.
  • Stir in shrimp and mix well.
  • Pour into 4 to 6 individual well-greased ramekins.
  • Combine melted butter, bread crumbs and remaining 1/4 cup of cheese; sprinkle over top of each ramekin.
  • Bake in a 400 degree oven for 10-12 minutes or until bubbly and brown.

Tips:

  • Use fresh shrimp. Fresh shrimp will have a better flavor and texture than frozen shrimp.
  • Cook the shrimp properly. Shrimp should be cooked until it is opaque and pink. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and rubbery.
  • Use a good quality curry powder. The curry powder is what will give your dish its flavor, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for a curry powder that is made with a variety of spices, including turmeric, cumin, coriander, and fenugreek.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different vegetables. The recipe calls for broccoli and cauliflower, but you can also use other vegetables, such as carrots, peas, or zucchini.
  • Serve the dish immediately. Curried shrimp au gratin is best served immediately, while it is still hot and bubbly.

Conclusion:

Curried shrimp au gratin is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The shrimp is cooked in a creamy curry sauce and then topped with a cheesy breadcrumb topping. The dish is baked until it is golden brown and bubbly. Curried shrimp au gratin is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
